YaIe,s PLAY PsrfectIy Fair.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-The graduate advis-
ory committee of the American Intercolle
giate Football association at the Fifth Ave-
nue. Hotel last evening effectually crushed
the hopes of Harvard men that the score of
the Yale-Harvard game might be amended.
There were present S. E. Winslow '95, Har-
ward; P. D. Besttys, Wesleyan; E. L. Rich
ards, Yale, as proxy for Walter Camp, and
NJ. Hodge, Princeton. After electing +. D.
Beattys chairman resolution was passed
generating Referee Hancock of the Harvard
Yale game from all charges of unfairness or
Partially. They next decided that the play
of Corbin, the Yale's center rush, in taking
the ball and running with it after kicking it
from scrimmage was q correct play. The
point had been raised that the ball was not
in play and could not be taken ahead of the
center rush until taken by another man or
snapped back. On this point Harvard had
relied to wipe off II points of Yale's score of
II points, which had been made through
Corbin's play. The decision having been
made by vote of to /, Mr.. Winslow of
Harvard voting in the negative, no protest in
regard to the game was made. No attempt
was made to raise question as to the ref
sree's calling the game too soon. This was
matter of fact and could not legally come
before the committee

THE VACANT PASSIONATE
AS Calvary baptist Church-WIIl MIR
Hfse0X Accept4

Over a week ago the members of the Cal
vary Baptist church voted to call the Rev.
Mr.. Hiscox of Troy, N. Y, to the passionate
of the Calvary Baptist church in this city.
Mr.. Hiscox had occupied the pulpit of the
church two or three times and had given uni
versal satisfaction. Although nothing definite
had been learned from Mr.. Hiscox an to
whether he would or would not accept the
call, yet it was stated among the church
members yesterday that in all probability he
would not come for the salary that had been
offered him, So, 200. He is getting the same
salary where he is at present engaged, and
as he is perfectly contented there he could
offer no excuse to his congregation for leay-
ing them and going to another church where
there would be more work for him to per-
form at no increase of salary to that which
he is st present receiving. One of the mem
bers of the church saw Mr.. Hiscox during
the past week. His silence SO far in not an
swering the call gives the members of the
church an idea that he would like to come
here, and as they are all so unanimous in
their call to him it is not at all improbable
that the church committee will have meet
ing this week, when they will decide to offer
him 81, 1000.

CONGRESS TO ASSEMBLE TO-DAY.
The senate to start or with a Dead
IOek-Some Changes Proposed In the
Rules of the House.
WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-The Fiftieth Con
gress will be called together tomorrow, but,
with the possibility of a deadlock in the
Senate over the admission of Senators Turpie
of Indiana and Faulkner of West Virginia, the
course of that body during the rest of the
week cannot be predicted. Should the stumb-
ling block be avoided the Senate will organ
ize and notify the House of Representatives
and the President of its readiness to proceed
to business. The Presidents message will
then be received on Tuesday and nothing in
the way of general legislation besides the in
PRODUCTION of bills is likely to occur during
the week. Caucuses will probably be held
to fill the numerous vacancies in the COM
mittees. A good deal of time will naturally
be spent by the Senate during the early
weeks of the session in secret session as
a long list of recess appointments by the
President await confirmation. No hitch in
the prompt organization of the House is ex-
pected. After the reading of the Presidents
message and it's reference TO the committee of
the whole an effort will be made to prevent
the introduction of bills until Speaker Carlisle
has announced the committees. The large
influx of new members and the close division
of the House on party lines will make the
selection of these committees a difficult task
which may occupy the Speakers time till
the holiday recess. Meanwhile no Ieg1sla-
tive business of importance can be transacted
and the House will probably consume the
short sessions intervening between frequent
adiournments (or perhaps recesses OF two or
three days eachl in debates of political
character. Attempts will be made to amend
some of the rules and it is proposed to re-
enact and enforce the present dead letter rule
requiring the committee on appropriations to
report all the appropriation bills within thirty
DAYS after its appointment. The rule will be
amended SO as to extend to sixty days the
time within which such bills must be report
ed during the long session while leaving thirty
DAYS as the maximum for the short session.
A strong effort will be made to have rule
adopted to prohibit the introduction of pri-
vate bills in open house and require that
these measures shall reach the appropriate
committees through the medium of the petit
ton box This would effect a saving of time
and expense. At present nineteen hundred
copies are printed of every bill introduced,
and as large majority of the private meas
ures referred to the committee remain there
their printing involves an apparently need
less expenditure of money. Should the pro-
posed rule be adopted no private bill will
be printed until acted upon by the commit
tee and reported for consideration.

THE GREAT PINK PEARL


Mr.. William Gillette, who appears at the
Hyperion Thursday and Friday evenings in
the New York Lyceum Theater successes The
Great Pink Pearl" and ''Edithas Burglar" is
equally famed as comedian and author. His
E'Professor" and t'Private Secretary" are as
pleasantly remembered here as is his latest
popular play, "Held by the Enemy" His
most recent triumph is his present spectacu-
lar production of ''She" at Niblo's Garden
Theater, New York. Now he is again before
the public as an actor in two plays very
widely removed, by the way, "The Great
Pink Pearl" being comedy and "Editha's
Burglar" pathetic sketch, the principal roles
in both being of course done by Mr.. Gillette.
The ''PearI" has record of nearly one hun4
dred consecutive performances at the New
York Lyceum Theater and over three hun
bred uninterrupted presentations at the
Princess Theater, London. "Editha's Burg
lar' is the one-act gem that preceded the
"Pearr' at the Lyceum SO oharmingly. 1t is
Burnett, who was identified with Mr..
William Gillette in the authorship of
ssEsmeralda," one of the Madison Squares
many popular plays. The artists who are
supporting Mr. Gillette in his present tour
have all been prominent in their respective
roles Madame de Nancaze enjoys special
distinction in this way from the fact of hav-
ing been in the Princess Theater cast as well
as that of the Lyceum. Little Elsie's career
at the Lyceum as Editha in the Burglar" is
familiar to those who keep informed on the
atrical topics generally. She is regarded as
one of the brightest of juvenile players and a
most thorough little artist. Her discovery to
the stage is credited to Mr.. Joseph Jefferson.

Mystery In Harvard Boating Circles.

at Harvard. While interest of the students

Captain Pfeffer has been putting few can

goes on in that room, but the names of the

leaked out. They are: Clifford Watson, who
has been identified with Harvard boating
for years, Robert Bacon, who was captain of
the football eleven in 1879 and rowed on the
varsity eight in the following spring, and
Frank Peabody, who was member of the
same crew with Mr.. Bacon. They are all
deeply interested in Harvard's sporting in-
terest, and will virtually run the college
